@mschuette Nope. I’m not big into the smoky stuff, so I am pretty much Highlands all the time. On the rare occasions that I want to mix it up a bit, I’ll have a little Blue Label, but that’s about the extent of the peat for me. Which I admit is odd, because I do like Mezcal…
@IndifferentDude@spacemart@yakkoTDI well, ya learn somethin’ every day and today I learned the origin on the band name UB40. I did not know that in all the years of listening but now it makes sense.
@haydesigner@pmarin@shahnm luckily I can’t speak from experience, but I’ve read that people who have been resuscitated after drowning report that when their lungs filled with water, it was euphoric. A brief moment of being in the womb.
Festive cocktails. Coffee is year-round. Beer is always good. I like a nice bourbon. I like eggnog, but my digestive system begs to differ, so I have it sparingly. Often spiked.
Ever since my ex-wife moved away I have literally lost all desire to drink alcohol. So I guess I don’t really have an “adult beverage” in particular anymore…
@zinimusprime I drink 2 cups in the morning
I drink 2 cups at night
I drink 2 cups in the afternoon
It makes me feel alright.
…And really awake so that the morning is still the night before. I don’t know anymore. Why can’t I sleep?
Scotch. Just like in the summer. And spring. Oh, and fall.
But Bourbon, tequila, mezcal, and various other spirits will do as well.
And wine.
But also beer.
@shahnm any seasonal changes? Islay in the colder months, Speyside Spring, anything like that?

Coffee in the morning, water in the day. Sometimes Polar diet orange or caffeine-free diet coke. I know, I know!
@andyw you need to calm it down
/giphy slow down
Don’t really have a favourite in my old age but in my youth a glass of Malibu rum and cream soda was always good.
I chose Egg Nog but I prefer mine “spiked” with Southern Comfort!!
/giphy drunk
@IndifferentDude I spike mine with Wild Turkey! I call it the Turkey Nog.
One that sounds gross but it really good is a Jager Nog.
all those things plus red wine
@spacemart
@IndifferentDude @spacemart Good old Unemployment Benefits form #40.

Good ol’ H2O.
@haydesigner Careful, I heard that dihydrogen monoxide can kill you…!
@haydesigner @shahnm as can dinitrogen monoxide (commonly nitrous oxide) But for a while anyway it will seem like more fun that drowning.

I hope none of us have to find out.
Egg nog with bourbon, beer side car.
Shockingly, that’s what Santa likes as well.
All of the above…
And more as suits my mood and the occasion
Adult beverage? You mean as in a single malt scotch that’s more than 18 years old?
Yeah, that would do but I like 25 year old better. More refined.
Hot cocoa. Not just for kids.
/giphy hot cocoa
Hot buttered rum!

Fresca, straight up.
More coffee
Hot chocolate with blackberry vanilla moonshine
Do you like piña coladas?
@xenophod I do like pina coladas!
@Tripod2 It’s summer somewhere!
@xenophod I like piña coladas but getting caught in the rain in winter sucks.
@macromeh I agree, the further you get from the equator, the more sucky getting caught in the rain gets.
Sometimes I’ll go wild and make a tea with my water.
@show_the_maw It’s even better if you put certain types of leaves in your water!
@shahnm @show_the_maw Do you mean catnip?
Coffee - sometimes I go crazy and have one in the afternoon.

@pmarin What about every 10,000pts?
Water. Plenty of it.
@Chakolate I have a much harder time drinking enough water in the winter.
Hot apple cider with a dash of cinnamon.
Hot coffee with a shot of Irish Cream of your choice I say
sazerac w an orange peel twist
Cognac and a small amount of very good coffee on the side.
To mix them would be an insult to both of them.
Lagavulin, Ardbeg and up the smoke to Laphruig.
